About Diana Mourer
Author | Nutrition Advocate | Simplifying Healthy Eating
Helping Teens and Young Adults Build Healthier Eating Habits—Without the Diet Culture Noise
For over 30 years, Diana Mourer has been a passionate student of nutrition’s impact on health, energy levels, and overall well-being. Her academic background at Indiana University and The University of Texas at Austin, combined with extensive research from books, articles, and periodicals, has fueled her lifelong mission: to simplify healthy eating and help people make informed food choices.
Diana believes that nutrition has become unnecessarily complicated. The abundance of conflicting information, marketing gimmicks, and fad diets has led many young people to feel lost when it comes to food. Her goal is to cut through the noise and bring people back to the basics—real, nourishing food, as nature intended.
As the author of Go Lite on White and Be Discreet with Sweets, Diana provides practical, no-nonsense advice on how to distinguish between real and processed foods, avoid hidden sugars and additives, and build long-term healthy eating habits without restriction.
The Inspiration Behind the Book
Diana has always asked questions rather than simply accepting conclusions. Over the years, she noticed a growing disconnect between what people are told about food and what actually leads to better health.
She realized that:
✔ Many young people and parents are confused about what’s truly healthy
✔ Food marketing tactics make processed food seem like a better choice
✔ Teens and young adults are struggling with energy crashes, cravings, and poor nutrition
Rather than pushing another restrictive diet, Diana wrote Go Lite on White and Be Discreet with Sweets to empower readers with knowledge—so they can make informed, sustainable food choices that support their long-term health.
What Makes Diana’s Approach Different?
Unlike many nutrition advocates who focus on calorie counting, macronutrient tracking, or restrictive eating, Diana’s approach is realistic and adaptable to everyday life.
No calorie counting or food diaries—just simple, practical advice
No extreme dieting—learn to enjoy food while making healthier choices
No complicated nutrition science—everything is explained in a clear, easy-to-follow way
Focus on real food—understanding what nourishes the body and what doesn’t
Diana believes that eating and drinking should be simple—just as nature intended. Her book provides a fresh perspective on nutrition that is free from diet culture, fads, and misinformation.
